Chapter 210: When You Grow Old
The sudden scene caught Chen Fan off guard.
Originally feeling vexed due to the fear of heights, Su Ruochu suddenly kissed him, which was like adding fuel to the fire, causing Chen Fan to instantly lose his ability to think.
His body almost instinctively held and embraced Su Ruochu tightly, kissing her forcefully.
One hand unconsciously moved from Su Ruochu's leg to her slender waist, and finally climbed to the peak.
As soon as he touched it, Su Ruochu froze as if she had been electrocuted.
Through the clothes, Chen Fan was like a baby who had found his favorite toy, unwilling to let go.
Su Ruochu's face was flushed red, not knowing what to do.
As a girl, this was her first time encountering such a thing.
Being touched by the opposite sex made her feel numb all over, with an indescribable feeling.
Su Ruochu's charming face was flushed with heat, and her instinct told her that she should reject Chen Fan and not do this.
So she reached out and grabbed Chen Fan's hand.
But at the same time, her heart was also a little reluctant. Thinking back to the Chinese New Year when she had left Chen Fan alone at the hotel, and when encountered her period...
Thinking about it, Chen Fan had indeed been unlucky enough.
Should she... just let him misbehave this one time?
Just as Su Ruochu's eyes were hazy, and she was a little tempted and confused, Chen Fan suddenly regained his senses.
Looking at the charming and shy girl in his arms, Chen Fan resisted the urge to lean down and kiss her again.
He called out to wake Su Ruochu up.
"Ruochu, Ruochu..."
"Ah..."
Su Ruochu slowly opened her eyes, only then noticing that Chen Fan was smiling at her.
"What's wrong?" Su Ruochu was a little nervous, "Am I... did I make you angry?"
Chen Fan reached out and straightened Su Ruochu's collar, "Thank you, I'm better now."
Su Ruochu looked at Chen Fan and said softly, "Were you mad at me for not letting you... just now?"
Chen Fan smiled and gently kissed Su Ruochu's forehead.
"No way, don't overthink it."
Su Ruochu: "Then why did you suddenly stop?"
Chen Fan explained softly, "The time and place are not right."
"You are someone I care about, and I don't want to leave you with even a hint of an unpleasant memory."
Su Ruochu said in a low voice, "I thought you were looking down on me."
Chen Fan was puzzled, "Look down on you for what?"
Su Ruochu blushed and looked down.
"My breasts are small."
"Yesterday, when I was with them, I realized mine were the smallest..."
Mentioning this matter, Su Ruochu pouted her small mouth, it seemed even a goddess could worry about such things.
So that's what she was worried about.
Chen Fan tried hard to suppress his laughter, "It's okay, small is also very cute."
"Besides, didn't I tell you before that it's possible to make them bigger through massage later on?"
"When you have time, I can help you for free... Ouch! Ouch! It hurts..."
Su Ruochu pinched Chen Fan's ear and snorted, "Don't think I don't know what you're up to."
"I'm telling you, dream on. It's not possible."
Chen Fan let out a long sigh.
"Alas, son, your dad has tried his best, it seems you can only drink milk formula in the future."
Su Ruochu was so embarrassed that her face turned red, and she pushed Chen Fan away shyly.
"What nonsense are you talking about?"
Finally, when the Ferris wheel ended, Su Ruochu was helping Chen Fan get off when they ran into Luo Wenjie and Liu Qianqian who were about to ride the Ferris wheel.
As soon as Luo Wenjie saw them, he shouted exaggeratedly.
"Damn, no way, Brother Fan, you two even managed to exhaust yourselves just from riding the Ferris wheel? You played that wildly?"
Chen Fan couldn't be bothered to respond to this guy, and mouthed what looked like: Scram!
In the afternoon.
Before leaving, Chen Fan accompanied Su Ruochu sitting on the beach, watching the sunset about to descend into the distance.
Su Ruochu gently leaned against Chen Fan's shoulder.
"If one day I grow old, will you still tease me to cheer me up and accompany me to watch the sunset like today?"
Chen Fan looked into Su Ruochu's eyes and smiled slightly.
"When you grow old, with white hair and drowsy sleep
Dozing by the stove, please take down this poem
Read it slowly, recalling the gentleness of your past gaze
Recalling their former deep shadows..."
Su Ruochu's mouth curved up slightly, and she immediately recited the following lines.
"How many loved your joyful time of youth
Admiring your beauty, pretending or sincere
Only one person loved your pilgrim's soul
Loved the painful wrinkles on your aged face..."
Su Ruochu was a little excited, "So you've read this version too."
"This poem has several translations, but I still like Yuan Kejia's version the best. It's full of poetic imagery. Just thinking about it feels so wonderful."
Chen Fan smiled and looked at Su Ruochu earnestly, "When you're old in the future, I'll be responsible for reading poems to lull you to sleep every day."
Su Ruochu was touched and was about to say something when she was interrupted by a voice.
"So you two are here. I was wondering why I couldn't find you guys."
Turning around, they saw Ma Xiaoshuai and Song Linlin.
"Have you both experienced everything?"
Chen Fan nodded, "Yeah, pretty much experienced it all. Nothing too exciting, except for that Ferris wheel, which was both nerve-wracking and thrilling..."
Su Ruochu knew what Chen Fan meant by that, and she couldn't help but shyly glare at a certain someone.
"What's so thrilling about the Ferris wheel?" Ma Xiaoshuai shook his head, clearly not understanding the implication.
Seeing the DSLR camera hanging around Ma Xiaoshuai's neck, Chen Fan suddenly became interested.
"You brought a camera? Do you know how to take pictures?"
Ma Xiaoshuai immediately glared at him, "Are you questioning a professional photographer's skills?"
"Alright. Here's your chance to show off. Take a photo of Ruochu and me together."
"Heh, that's my forte."
Chen Fan immediately pulled Su Ruochu towards the beach and stood by the sea.
The young man and woman standing together seemed a little awkward.
After fiddling with the settings for a while, Ma Xiaoshuai couldn't help but comment, "Get closer. Closer..."
"What are you two doing? It's not like you're meeting for the first time. Why are you acting so tense?"
Chen Fan reached out and pulled Su Ruochu's shoulder, bringing her in front of him.
Then he shouted at the other side.
"Less talk, just take the picture."
Click.
In the frame, the deep blue sea was in the background, and the bloody red sunset was overhead.
Chen Fan had one arm around Su Ruochu's shoulder, hugging her tightly.
Chen Fan was smiling radiantly, while Su Ruochu had her head turned towards Chen Fan.
The scene was frozen in that moment.
This was truly their first photo together.
Two years and five months earlier than the couple photo they had taken at a photo studio in the previous life.
On the way back, Chen Fan solemnly reminded Ma Xiaoshuai to be very careful with the developing process and not make any mistakes.
Summing up this two-day-and-one-night short trip, everyone was quite satisfied.
It had strengthened their friendships and deepened the relationships between couples.
Especially for the honest Han Xu from Room 519, who had heard that there was significant progress with the girl he had invited.
Their romantic relationship was likely to be established.
Wu Di analyzed, "The fact that she was willing to come out and play with you shows that she trusts you and has feelings for you."
Go for it, Fifth Brother. You can make it happen.
Han Xu still had that same honest look.
"If this works out, I'll treat everyone to a meal."
However, Chen Fan no longer had time to worry about that.
Just the second day after returning, he took a cab to the club.
He was worried that if he didn't go there soon, a certain woman might really grab two cleavers and come to kill him at the school.
